The Story of Lynn Whitney Consulting
After spending over eight years in banking and managing multiple locations as a branch manager, Lynn Whitney had the privilege of assisting more than 700 small business owners and nonprofit organizations. She helped entrepreneurs understand how to build both personal and business credit, secure pre-approvals for loans, and navigate the complexities of starting and growing a business. Beyond financial guidance, she built meaningful relationships and saw firsthand the overwhelming challenges business owners faced. Many struggled to survive past two years because they wore too many hats—handling everything from bookkeeping and marketing to daily operations—leaving little room for growth.
​
Recognizing this gap, she launched the Mastering Entrepreneurship Institute, where we hosted an annual conference to teach small business owners how to scale their businesses using strategic systems and processes to also include payroll services, independent health insurance, mental health, and more. This eventually led to her establishing an online entrepreneurship program, providing accessible education for business success.
"In 2018, I took a leap of faith, leaving my corporate job to establish Lynn Whitney Consulting. The very week I submitted my resignation, God confirmed my decision by blessing me with two contracts—together worth more than my annual salary as a branch manager. As a single parent striving to make ends meet, I realized that my experiences in banking and education prepared me for that moment—to empower business owners with the tools, strategies, and resources they need to thrive. What started as a passion has now grown into a full-service consulting firm dedicated to helping businesses and leaders WIN."
